I heard from frankie there's trouble at his place
On highway 95 the police they gave me chase
I was with his sister I hadn't seen a thing
They had an apb just to bring me in

oh, I had jenny by my side
Oh, she never told me that she'd lied

if that's the way (that) our love goes
I'll take my chances with you I know
And we'll go the way the wild wind blows

I wasn't gonna stop they'd have to catch me first
And as I ran the red I heard the gunfire burst
Across three counties chasin' me for days
But judge I didn't know that she was under age

repeat

[instrumental]

Well the judge he was generous and gave me a rest
Of eighteen months in the county's best
And I got a visit from jenny yesterday
By the time I'm out everything will be ok

repeat
repeat

She gave me one look
You could see it in her eyes
And we'll go the way the wild wind blows

and while I'm away dream of dreams
That what we had no one had seen
Because we go the way the wild wind blows

repeat and fade
